About Me

My photo
I enjoy creating objects of function and beauty with my two hands. I live in a small town and sell my hand made gifts and accessories at the local Farmer's Market. See something you'd like to order? Contact me and we'll discuss custom options (size, color, etc.) and cost with shipping and sales tax.

Another Batch of Cards















Here are more cards I created yesterday. The "Thankful for You" card's background was done with alcohol inks. The "Thinking of You" card's pokadots was made with a homemade stencil. The "Hello" card's flower was a silk flower I deconstructed, inked and sewed on with a button center. Then I had to throw in a masculine card too.

My old handbag


This was my old handbag I knitted and felted a couple years ago. I basically wore it out. But a friend loved it so much I washed it up and gifted it to her. She was trilled! It was a Booga Bag pattern from Black Sheep Bags. http://www.blacksheepbags.com/booga_bag.html
